In what comes as a significant development from Pakistan, reports suggest that Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif is likely to offer Rs 14 crore compensation to UN-designated terrorist and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) chief Masood Azhar. Azhar lost 14 members of his family, and the Pakistani state has sanctioned Rs 1 crore for each individual killed in the Indian airstrikes, The Tribune India reports. The compensation will be paid to the legal heirs, implying that if Azhar determines himself as the legal heir, he may end up with the whopping amount.
